Hello everyone,
if you find an abandoned POS and structures is there anyway to scoop the objects, by destroying them or whatever.
I want to know if these are worth anything

Sincerely,

If you find an abandoned POS you will first need to destroy the tower itself before you can scoop up any POS mods. Most people will not take the time to do this, as I believe that an anchored tower has 99% resists.

Instead most would simply destroy any hangar / ship maintenance / silos / reactors and scoop whatever loot drops.

The POS mods are not normally worth the opportunity cost of destroying the tower to scoop.

Bull, a tower never has 99% resists unless it is in reinforced, and then you can't target it. The mods around the tower have 99% resists until the tower is removed while the tower is active, hence the incap for guns instead of blowing up. Destroying an offline tower is no easier or harder than an online one except it wont shoot at you as everything is offline.

Most Wii one bother unless there are faction modules that could be scooped as it takes quite some time.

I'm right behind you
